Missing Teeth?

Dental Implants Are Like 'Growing' New Teeth!

Lost teeth can cause bigger problems than you might imagine. The open
space allows other teeth to shift and move, which can alter your bite. The
tooth no longer stimulates jaw bone, so the bone begins to deteriorate.
Chewing, speech, and appearance can all be affected.

That's why the ideal replacement is a dental implant. Whether the missing
tooth is obvious, in the front of the mouth, or where you need the most
stability, in the back, implants can help you recapture a healthy and
beautiful smile. Unlike dentures and bridges, which rest on top of the gums,
dental implants are placed under the gums. The crown placed on an implant
can look just as real as the original, because it comes through the gums –
so it's like growing a new tooth!

Implants can be used to replace
any number of lost teeth. Even if you have no teeth, you can benefit from
implants. Imagine replacing your dentures with teeth that don't move around
when you talk! And of course implants are permanent and don't need to be
taken out at night.

Dr. Ha handles the entire process, beginning
with the placement of the implant post all the way through crown
fabrication. So there's no need to be referred to another office. He is also
skilled in bone grafting, sinus lift, and tissue grafting if these are
needed to produce the optimal outcome.

Three-Dimensional Dentistry

3-D cone beam CT digital imaging technology is one of the latest
advances in dentistry and is used to provide greater accuracy and precision
with implant placement. We are excited to soon be one of the first practices
in our area to provide this service. Think of this as a three-dimensional
X-ray that is FAR more accurate than traditional X-ray equipment, taking
much less time and doing it with far less radiation exposure. Ultra cone
beam images present an outstanding advantage when diagnosing patients and
evaluating treatment options.
